Is there such an animal? I am trying to use two manual flashes, both off camera - neither of which is 'slave' enabled.
What can I do, cheaply - without damage to the camera. (Will current be an issue wiring two flashes in parallel?)
Thanks for the input.

If you get the pc cord that has a pc plug on one end and a 2 prong socket on the other, you can then use any combination of household extension cords to connect your lights together as long as you get the pc plug to two prong to attach your camera. You have to be careful tho, because the two prong end that you attach to your camera will also plug into a wall socket. Not good.

This means I need 3 PC-Sync to 2 prong male cords right? 1 for the sync to extension cord / power strip and 2 for 2 flashes?

Go to Radio Shsck (or other electronics store) and buy a mono-mini-plug Y splitter. You will probably want one withmale on one end and two-females on the other.
Just make sure you don't get a stereo adapter. They won't work.
